of term and the Mystical Masters comp is over and I have made it into the top 10. So, it's been a while since I dropped in. Still seriously disillusioned with work and seriously considering a lenthy period of leave ~ just concerned about how difficult it would be to go back, so I'm somewhere "between a rock and a hard place" at the moment.

So, thank heavens for scrapping ~ it really is my solace.The Potion Commotion comp has ended and the Mystical Masters has been dominating my scrapping time. These are my final three layouts for the PC comp:Week 5Week6Week 7

Mystical have also had a cybercrop recently, I only managed 2 layouts, but I'm really happy with them

And finally, the Mystical Masters. Each week a series of challenges has been set:Week 2 ~ step by step technique and LO/OTP using that techniqueWeek 3 ~ LO using other techniques from week 2 and a monochromatic 8.5 x 11Week 4 ~ Resume style double and a signature LOWeek 5 ~ Create a unique cybercrop theme with 3 LO & 1 card challenge and produce the LOs and card

Have received some goodies for the week 6 challenges, but have to wait until Sunday when it's posted. Will photograph and upload my May White with One layout tomorrow.

Okay whinge over, onto good things ~ scrapping things.Firstly, April DT layouts for Let's Scrap:These layouts are featuring on the homepage at Let's Scrap as a class kit this month ~ woohoo!!I have also set the challenges on the forum for May. Will upload my examples in a day or two and also,coming up in a couple of weeks is the next cybercrop.

The first challenges at We Challenge You are up. This month I was on OTP and had a doorhanger as my assignment:I am on cards in June, and just awaiting my DT pack from Allcraftz who are generously sponsoring the blog ~ YAY!!

Managed to finish off a couple of challenges before the end of April including the Sketch #2 at Mystical (which I won) and which was also eligible for Stuck!and my first ever White with One:

Over at Mystical there are a couple of comps going on. This was my take on Spell #4 in the Potion Commotion comp:and in Week one of Mystical Masters we had to interpret a sketch:and design a sketch with a sample layout:Havr just finished my Spell #5 layout and am working on some Mystical Cybercrop layouts which I will upload later.
